Here is an interactive plot. You can zoom in and out and spin it around. It is made using an RGL widget and 3dscatterplot. It is an R Shiny app.
HTML widgets work just like R plots. The only difference is that the interactive web visualization is produced by R plots. A line or two of R code is all it takes to produce a map. The R console can be used as well as R Markdown reports and Shiny web applications. You may also want to check out the gallery for the other widgets.
